"I have this dream, again and again."
"It's all blurry, but you're there, and so is Little Bun."
"In the dream, it feels like we went through a very long stretch of time. I was weak there, so weak I was completely useless and had no strength at all. And because of that..."
"I... caused you both so much trouble... Dream-me couldn't do anything, and even got so many people killed..."
"In that dream, I seem to have let you down terribly. I really wanted to do something, anything, to help you. I even thought, how wonderful it would be if I could stand in front of you and protect you..."
So Hu Tao gets a massive power-up! She goes from an idiot to an absolutely terrifying powerhouse!
When Hu Tao goes from useless to useful, what changes might such a small twist bring to the Sorrowful Continent?!
It can't be that the idiot gets beaten to his knees and forced to go back and do ( )( )( ), can it?!
